Can you try the following?

In a empty folder (no Rakefile or Rails application) perform two things:

rake --version

That is just to know if rake is working.

Then, create a simple rakefile:

require 'rake/clean'

And execute from the command line:

rake -T

If still doesn't work, we need:

gem env

Just an advice: You installed Ruby in a path with spaces (C:\Program Files)

That is not recommended, since some tools do not properly escape paths
(which is not the case of RubyGems or Rake) but could be something
else.
